Which Elder Scrolls game is your favorite?

Tell us which of the five Elder Scrolls games tops your list and why in the comments section!

Arena

The Elder Scrolls: Arena is a first-person role-playing game, in which you must rescue the Emperor from his dimensional prison by recovering the eight pieces of the Staff of Chaos.

Daggerfall

Daggerfall seizes the player and thrusts them into a non-linear world full of plotting, conspiracy and political intrigue. Armed with their wits and their blade, and magic if they so wish to use it, the player is drawn into one of the most immersive worlds ever to grace the PC.

Morrowind

The central quests concern the deity Dagoth Ur, housed within the volcanic Red Mountain, who seeks to gain power and break Morrowind free from Imperial reign.

Oblivion

Oblivion’s main story revolves around the player character’s efforts to thwart a fanatical cult that plans to open the gates to a realm called Oblivion.

Skyrim

Skyrim’s main story revolves around the player character’s efforts to defeat the nordic dragon god Alduin who is prophesied to destroy the world. Set two hundred years after Oblivion, the game takes place in the land of Skyrim in the midst of a civil war after the assassination of the high king. The open world gameplay of the Elder Scrolls series is continued in Skyrim, as the player character can explore the land at will and ignore or postpone the main quest indefinitely.
